Former Reddit user looking for an alternative! I love Creative Writing, games, anime/manga, Android, movies, books, practicing phone photography, and long strolls to nowhere in particular. I’m also on Mastodon talking about day-to-day stuff like my progress in Animal Crossing New Horizons or whatever has caught my fancy!
I’m a card-carrying homosexual if that truly matters duckies!

If they would have released this current version instead of the shitty release that we got at first…That would’ve been better in my opinion and I could’ve easily lived with a stable, fun game. We never were going to get a 1 to 1 trailer version of Cyberpunk 2077; I made peace with that after learning the misleading nature of trailers in general long ago (personally find trailers should be honest). It’s close but not 100% there.
As for my enjoyment being taken away, you couldn’t have if you tried! It was just a strongly worded response to my own post. You didn’t do what most people would do and devolve into slurs or other demeaning statements used on those who have contrasting opinions.
You certainly live up to your username. ROFL Shilling for a corporation is a move which is never in one’s best interest! We should always speak honestly about games and the corpos who made said games. Cyberpunk 2077 will never be the release trailer, as game trailers have a history of being dishonest. It certainly wasn’t at launch because Cyberpunk 2077 was a broken fucking mess. The dev team did try their best to make good on some of the promises, but not all of them. I do speak honestly that I do enjoy Cyberpunk 2077 in its current state, but I also acknowledge that it wasn’t the game we were originally promised.
Overall, I find the full version of Cyberpunk 2077 a hell of a lot more satisfying than when it initially released in a broken state! If you are playing on Xbox Series S or X, there are occasional crashes but autosaving mostly makes it so only a few seconds to minutes is lost. As for the PC version, I cannot say what state Cyberpunk 2077 is on Steam/GOG. I agree that it’s better to work on the games you have ahead in your to be played queue!
Personally, I am having fun with the game in its current state. The release version was so shitty, and I posted some spicy responses about Cyberpunk 2077 on release day. Shilling for corporations isn’t my vibe, plus fanboys will shill for free because they have rose-tinted glasses on. They hope that all the positive press will give them more of a thing they like. I would prefer a game which is in a stable state and is content rich. Cyberpunk 2077 got there in the end, despite the stupid executives over the dev team almost sunk this game with their poor decision to release in a broken fucking state!
Ah, telling on themselves in a way which is easily made viral, nice!
Currently, the only way you can play V Rising Offline is by putting the Steam Client in Offline mode.
sigh Well, it shows they learned absolutely nothing about their misstep with Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League game. J.B. Perrette and the executives meddled with this game and soiled it due to their rampant greed; if only they’d left the developers who were passionate about this project just work their magic. There are so many games in the mobile and free-to-play markets it’s not likely any of WB’s trash will get much traction there either.
An offline mode is the only way I’d consider buying and playing Nightingale; I do love survival games, but I need them to be offline adventures balanced for single-player experiences! As an introvert the last thing I want to do is encounter another person in a game.

This will make any corpo stooge wet themselves with joy, however, as a consumer I’m repulsed by the idea! I don’t want an entertainment universe, just awesome games to play; Preferably games that’s single player, no microtransactions, and zero live service elements (that is becoming a gradual impossibility). As a consumer, I now know the companies to avoid buying products from.
@mike591 I’m excited for this game because they’ve built up a lot of sensible gameplay elements so early on in development. The social system seems more interesting than The Sims 4, where you could become best friends and marry someone on the same day you met them (I’ve done this so often, even with conflicting personality traits). It takes both time and effort to befriend the other Paras! That is what I desire from a social sim, investing time into creating the story for my character and having that time feel meaningful.
@EveryMuffinIsNowEncrypted You’re welcome!
@DNU There are games I have fond memories of, but my memory of specific events is all but gone. I usually remember themes more than story details (especially for games I played years ago). I understand your lack of memory associated with Nexomon- Extinction.
@DNU I’m close to finishing the game myself, Nexomon- Extinction has been a solid adventure! I have a higher opinion of the story only because the satire really vibes well with me!
@EveryMuffinIsNowEncrypted Its fine, sometimes people don’t understand one another initially. I’m verbose in my replies so that might have also been a cause of said misunderstanding.
Yeah, Nexomon-Extinction for its price point is surprisingly free of the garbage that plagues mobile games! It shocked me as well and I found it hard to process at first. You’ll have fun with this game because it challenges those who have been starved of challenge by Pokémon games! The Nexomon designs are intriguing, I’d love to pick their brains on where their inspiration comes from.
@EveryMuffinIsNowEncrypted The only reason why I’m playing this game is because there are no microtransactions or any garbage associated with mobile games in the PC version. It’s a typical buy once and enjoy game, I’m not a fan of the free to play model especially how many developers choose to implement it. It’s scummy, manipulative generally and that’s something which needs to go away in the gaming space.
Also, I just shared my love for the catching and collecting mechanics because it’s a relaxing thing to do in times of stress for me. I didn’t misunderstand you at all, we all enjoy games differently.
@EveryMuffinIsNowEncrypted Personally, I catch and evolve as many as possible as I love to collect those creatures! EXP Share did lighten some difficulty in Pokémon games but most of the battles were also under tuned which compounded the issue. There were very few difficult fights in Pokémon games collectively as a result. It’s sad that the Pokémon journey felt like a joyous stroll rather than a real adventure.
Nexomon-Extinction certainly doesn’t pull its punches, rewarding strategy and preparation with an earned victory every time! There are encounters that I’ve barely won because it’s a challenge and every decision matters. Team composition and balance of types is crucial as well. Nexomon-Extinction feels like the Pokémon game that I’ve always wanted but was doomed to never receive because older gamers aren’t the target audience.
All the flexibility of Bloodlines 1 is gone, it seems like we are stuck with a single character who could be from just a stingy roster of four clans. It’s reported that Phyre’s gender can be player chosen, I read an article about it. The writing at least seems interesting, but they only showed a small portion of the opening; The quality of the narrative and dialogue could obviously degrade as a player gets further into it. I’m honestly disappointed that The Chinese Room was even given this game to develop, they didn’t seem the type to be able to pull a game of this scale off. Especially with the rich history of this iconic World of Darkness tabletop game! If anything, Larian Studios would’ve been a better choice. Obsidian Studios (give them an awesome budget and some additional technical help, they’d make a wonderful game too).
I’ll naturally withhold full judgement or dismissive disinterest upon reading some reviews from Gaming Sites that I trust.
I’m more than happy about the Xbox version of Persona 3 Reloaded…It shocked me that Xbox was getting some more Atlus love! If anything, I would hope Atlus saves the effort for a successor to the Nintendo Switch, which seems to be in the hands of some dev studios (based on rumors).
PC seems to have gotten a better deal in that regard it seems! I do wish they would address the console issue of occasional crashes though, but I am happy you are having an smooth game experience.
